Many mornings and all throughout the day, I have a song and or praise in my heart for God. Even through my storms, I sing them. However, today I feel a little perplexed and dispondent. So, I am praying for my soul music to replay. I need it. I am having difficulty on my job with a couple of people and I have allowed it to steal some of the passion that I have for my job. Please pray for me. As I read this, I know exactly what you are talking about. Many mornings and all throughout the day, I have a song and or praise in my heart for God.

I realize now that I need it in my relationship with God and that's where I will seek it now. I do enjoy singing my praises, I find it relaxing and rewarding. Our most important relationship in life is with God. I now realize parts of the relationship that are needed that have been missing. Thank you so much for the post. :) For a while now I have known that I yearn for intimacy and I thought I could get the intimacy from humans.

Psalms to Soul Music... I like the format/sound/style of soul music and love reading the psalms... Long ago I took the advice of reading a proverbs a day for the days of the month (in addition to my regular reading and studies), but eventually wanted to move on, and I found a few psalms (or one psalm highly reflective and meditated upon) a day really took the space of that practice well. Maybe if you have enough influence you can 'bend the ear' of a few musicians?

Yes, I praise Him and worship Him with joy for all the blessings and good things in my life. Then, “My soul magnifies the Lord.” I rejoice and sing songs of praise. ?. Yet, there are times when troubles, sorrows, hardships come my way and I am only able to cry out, “Lord I cannot bear this anymore…” Then, my anguished soul is only able to cry for His help. Then, my wretched being is unable to Worship Him. Then, my lips forget to sing His praise. ?. I am yet to learn to say like King David, “I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” Psalm 34:1-3 Oh Lord help me to worship you at all times! jjw2855 It is wonderful to be able to worship the Lord with your whole being.

Isn't it wonderful to know that when our worship and praise is directed toward God, and it comes from a sincere heart, that God receives it and gives us the blessing of his wonderful presence. Thanks for the comment. Even those of us who can’t carry a note in a bucket, can sing and praise God with all we have.

Worship is not about us, and yet so often we make it about the music we like, the sermons we prefer, the place that makes us the most comfortable. Shame on us. As you have so beautifully stated, worship is about focusing on God. When we focus on him for who he is and not for what he does for us, then I believe we soar to a new intimacy in worship. Thanks for the comment. Blessings on you this coming year! Absolutely!

Psalm 22:3 When we praise God by telling Him we appreciate what He has done for us, thanking Him for the people in our lives and the things He has provided for us and all that He has created - it takes our focus off of our selves and our circumstances and puts our focus on Him - our loving Father, protector, provider, deliverer...etc. I could go on but I think you get the idea. :) Let all that is in me praise His name.

Let it out! : ) You are absolutely right - praise and worship should be a lifestyle. Everything that we do has the potential of becoming an act of worship to our God - playing with our kids, mowing the lawn, cleaning the house, and even singing in church, or listening to a message. When we see all of life as worship, we won't have to wait until Sunday to engage in worship. Thanks for your comment. Let it out!

I just want to let it out how I feel about my God as well as show others that His outpouring of His love, Grace, Mercies, and His Spirit do transform us. Our lives should be a Life of Praise!!
